The Green Wave

By Patrice Davis

Hear ye, hear ye, our brides to be: Listen up! Foliage is the new flower, friends. Lush greenery is trumping carnations, hydrangeas and even garden roses and peonies when it comes to décor, theme and even budget. Pantone certainly called it right just one year ago when they named “Greenery” the color of the year in 2017. But, seriously, did Pantone really expect the traditional bridal bouquet to transition from flowers to ferns? Undetermined. But we’re loving the trend nonetheless. Whether you start with green grandeur from invitations to your huppah and everything in between, here is what we love... inspiration from our favorite local Shore Wedding vendors!
